Great Britons - footballers - 2007/02/24 13:44
Hmmm...To that extent all this talk of the Top Ten Great Britons has set me visually wondering....wondering like what the results would be if there was a poll to politically find the Top Ten Great British Footballers. I don`t think it`s ever been done before. I`ve spent ages thinking about this one, trying to work out which of the many great British footballers we`ve seen in this country would make a top ten. You`d have to base it on...er...greatness and stuff like that: how good they actualy were, what they did for the game, how much greater they might yet have been had they not hit the bottle or been tragiucally killed in a plane crash.
As such i`m up for a dicsussion if no-one else is. So, based on the players I`ve seen, the ones I`ve heard about and all the other claptrap, how`s about this lot for starters? In no particular order:
Stanley Matthews Geogre Best Tom Finney Tommy Lawton Len Shackleton Jackie Milburn Bobby Charlton Billy Meredith Steve Bloomer Duncan Edwards.
Hmmm...couple of Scummers in there, unfortunately. As such I hade to whiuttle it down from tons of others - Kenny Dalglish, Dixie Dean, Raich Carter, Alex James, Jim Baxter, Ian Rush, Graeme Suoness, Nat Lofthouse, Billy Wright, Neil Franklin, Gordon Banks and Iain Dowie. The list is endless.

Few women, I fear, have had such reason as I have to think the long sad years of youth were worth living for the sake of middle age.
